Hi i got problem,
I was doing my map for 2 days and now when i want to put it to map designer at warlight site, it seems i done something wrong and contours overlap.

Her is the img

i was trying path>difference and it doesnt helps, i done it earlier with all territories.

Does anyone have any solution for this?

it is because the lines in Inkscape overlap. You have to put them perfectly next to eachother (without gaps inbetween them) but not on eachother.

mayby there is some way to do it faster and more accurately. Doing perfect lines for 100+ territories will take week, especialy that i have very unequal territories.

problem solved: u need to paint a line along the borded with pen. next u set width of the outline to 0,8 and press ctrl+alt+c (it change it to path) next u mark the line and with pressed shift u click on territory and press ctrl + - , next repeat ctrl + d with line and u do the same with neighboring territory. And we got perfect borders:)
